Gustavo Sclocchi Award
EAGE, SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers – Italian Section), and Assorisorse (Italian Sustainable Energy & Resources Industry Association) announce the Sclocchi Award.
The award, established in 1993, is dedicated to the late Gustavo Sclocchi, an Eni manager, who eminently promoted the initiative until his premature death in 2001.
Over the last 30 years, about 900 theses have been submitted out of which more than 150 have won awards.
